About

Who we are and what we do

LesPlan Educational Services Ltd. has been providing North American teachers with current events resources since 1990. Our goal is to help teachers develop students' understanding of and ability to critically assess current issues and events by providing quality, up-to-date, affordable, ready-to-use resources.

Our team of classroom teachers, writers, and illustrators select the previous month's top news stories, then craft age-appropriate, leveled stories summarizing the key points and perspectives for students. We include the background information often lacking from traditional news stories – as well as key vocabulary definitions – to help students understand the issue, and strive to present all sides of any debate. Our aim is to foster understanding and develop critical thinking so that students can develop their own positions on each story we cover.

Our guarantee

We continually strive to maintain our reputation for consistently providing top-quality resources. If any of our publications fail to meet your expectations, you may cancel your subscription at any time and receive a full refund for all remaining issues.

A fantastic tool to use to allow students to connect to the events of the world!
